Looks like another Beyonce cd to me. I hope she has learned her lesson from the Dream Girls Oscar fiasco and don't just add a word to the song to be considered one of the song writers. But, I personally don't see this cd going anywhere like the Dreamgirls cd. Still, best wishes.

I feel like I'm the only one that thinks that Beyonce being Etta James is like Aretha Franklin wanted Halle Berry to play her in her movie. Etta James had 'tude and she had meat on her. I don't get it......Best of luck with the film..

This movie was amazing. I'm only 16yrs old but this movie taught me alot, that the history books or schools when they do tell things about black history month. This movie opened my eyes and i say it's the best this year. Even though i had to go to fayetteville to see it an i stay in southern pines because the box office picks the movies that will make it they lost out. Elvis nor the beach boys wouldnt be who they are if it was not 4 black people. thanks for this wonderful movie
